The last listed handicap of the year on the last day of the flat season. The going is given as soft so all my figures go out the window but I have done an analysis so here goes. Originally there were thirteen runners but two have dropped out. I assume because of the going. I'm left with three horses that look good enough to run in this class. Inyordreams is a three-year- old who could be the danger to two older horses and at 14/1 could be the value each-way bet. It's fairly close between the top two: Jack Dexter 5/2 favourite and my selection TROPICS 4/1. They ran against each other last time out at Haydock where the selection at 14/1 was second and Jack Dexter was third at 11/2, just a quarter of a length behind. That day the selection came to take it up the lead inside the final furlong but then got caught by the impressive winner Gordon Lord Byron. The two principles meet on identical terms here again so on recent form TROPICS should prove the best again.
